Lucy Kim at Slag Gallery, NYC

Lucy Kim has a show coming up at Slag Gallery in New York. "Ubiquitous", featuring work by Lucy Kim and Janos Stone, runs April 12-May 7. The opening reception is Thursday April 14th, 6-8 p.m.

Lucy Kim, along with Jeesoo Lee, took part in a show at Tiger Strikes Asteroid in December 2010. Kim's work "involves the manipulation of advertisements through simple, blunt physical actions" and the use of delicate tin foil, manipulated, painted and then flattened out.

Slag Gallery is located at 531 West 25 St, Ground 10 and is open Tues-Sat., 11am-6pm.

Live from Mt Airy, It's Alexis Granwell!

A lovely write up of Tiger Strikes Asteroid member Alexis Granwell's show:

 "The latest show at the Mount Airy Contemporary Artists Space pairs the assemblages of Alexis Granwell with the paintings of Rick Lewis and proves (again) that contemporary art can pass muster anywhere, even in an 18th-century carriage house in bosky Mount Airy. Granwell's delicate interminglings of colorful cast-off bits of cardboard, leather, wood, wire, paint, and thread look like abstract paintings set loose from canvases. They're the descendants of works by artists like Judy Pfaff and Richard Tuttle, but with a whimsical architecture all their own."

The show is up for one more Saturday, don't miss it!
